Hi. I just experimented running an assembly created with Microsoft Visual J# with the Mono JIT. Microsoft Visual J# produces MSIL from Java source, targeting the runtime (and it's a FREE addon to Visual Studio!). My hope was that I could replace a broken C# class with with a version Java that has less bugs. ;)
The bad news: Mono virtually "exploded". I do know that some stuff regarding metadata in assemblies is not yet implemented. But the following looks like a serious parsing problem that ends up reporting weird binary stuff with the potential to even crash (or create buffer overflows). D:\dev\JSBZip2>mono bin\debug\JSBZip2.exe ..\LogTest\windowsmedia_20030131.bz2 ** Message: Unknown heap type: ** Message: Unknown heap type: trings ** Message: Unknown heap type: ** Message: Unknown heap type: ** Message: Unknown heap type: ** Message: Unknown heap type: lob ... ** Message: [Invalid UTF-8] Unknown heap type: ??�?????(?1?<?T?Y?^?c?h??� There's plenty of binary characters being reported in the Unknown Heap Type messages as well. I can provide a full ILDASM /ALL dump of that assembly on request.
